2019 Weather to Climate - touring exhibition.

Developed to educate students and families about weather and climate, the exhibition serves as a platform for visitors to easily digest the ever-relevant topic of today - climate change. Through light and approachable methods, visitors will take away important learnings from their experience in hopes of instituting small changes in their every day lives. The Exhibition Includes: Interactive displays, Young meteorologist/news anchor on-camera experience, weather simulations, climate labs, education video games, immersive environment.

Dig into what lies beneath the Arctic with the vast and fascinating world of permafrost! Under the Arctic: Digging Into Permafrost transports visitors to the Arctic using the sights and smells of the world’s only permafrost research tunnel, with Ice Age fossils.

Somerset House, London

Five transparent interlinked domes; visitors enter a dome that contains the very pure air of Tautra, the peninsular on the coast of Norway where the project originated. From here they can walk through the installation to experience what the air is like in London, Beijing, São Paulo and New Dehli.

Wilson Center, Washington, D.C. Photographs by Gary Braasch.

'Gary Braasch's photographic exhibition "Climate Change in Our World" enjoyed an extended run at the Boston Museum of Science from June 22, 2013 through January 2, 2014. Thousands of museum visitors were engaged and educated by the photographs informed by information from scientific research, showing scientists at work collecting data, and locations ranging from the Arctic to Bangladesh and the Great Barrier Reef where climate change is already having an effect. The show's final images are of some of the actions being taken to reduce global warming pollution and limit the effects of climate change. Braasch, winner of the Ansel Adams Award, has been documenting climate change and its solutions since 1999 in his project “World View of Global Warming.” '

'The Anthropocene is the current geological era in which humans are making a profound impact on the geological strata. Geologists are still debating the term, but here at the museum, we are embracing it as a social and cultural tool for exploring the broad sum effect humans are having on the environment.

To put it simply, people are changing the planet. We’ll be exploring the good, the bad, and the ugly truths of the Anthropocene for the next six months with the new exhibition We Are Nature: Living in the Anthropocene, which opens October 28 at the museum.'

Musée de la Nature du Valais, Sion, Switzerland

"Objectif Terre" is a pioneering exhibition that thematises and makes sensitive the notion of Anthropocene. The immersive, dynamic and colourful staging, conceived by the artist Marie Velardi, integrates perfectly with the messages conveyed. An appropriate form and background that adds originality and attractiveness to this exhibition, and which invites, the time of a visit, to question its way of considering nature.

Modern civilization has given the Earth a bit of a fever, and it’ll take more than acetaminophen to break it. Let Bill Nye the "Climate Guy" show you how to cure an over-warm planet, tame monster storms, detox the oceans and keep continental ice sheets where they belong - on continents! Ice is nice...Focused on younger audience

Deutsches Museum, Berlin December 5, 2014 to January 31, 2016

Together with the Rachel Carson Center and in cooperation with Haus der Kulturen der Welt , the Deutsches Museum is currently planning a major special exhibition on the "Anthropocene“. Coined by the atmospheric chemist and Nobel Prize laureate Paul J. Crutzen, the term describes the idea of a new geological era starting around 1800 and following the Holocene which is shaped by the deep interventions into nature by humans as biological and geological agents.

Exhibited in Munich and Brussels, 2014, and traveling in Europe, 2015

Focused on changing landscapes - locations of the photographs include the Arctic, high mountain regions such as the Himalayas and the Alps, Peru, North America, China, Kenya, Australia and Antarctica. Images were updated for the show, including new repeat photography of glaciers in the Andes and Alps. The captions are detailed descriptions connecting the science, effects and solutions to local issues,

8 zones: science focus for most.zone 2 - ‘impacts’ is about coral reefszone 7 - about the ‘eco home’ – green technologyzone 8 - Singapore’s action planWhat will life in Singapore be like with climate change and global warming? Or, anywhere else in the world? This exhibition aims to bring this 21st Century planet-wide challenge to our visitors by relating the science and the experts’ projections of possible local effects.

The exhibition features science and imagery from the International Centre for Integrated Mountain Development (ICIMOD) and striking photography from David Breashears, GlacierWorks and other Nepali photographers that showcase the rapidly changing Himalayas and highlight solutions being implemented in the region. The exhibition is traveling to Pokhara after it was shown in Kathmandu for five months in early 2014.

Emotive, focused on impacts on individuals and their homes, their streets, and neighbourhoods

Presented to mark the one-year anniversary of Superstorm Sandy, Rising Waters draws on work submitted by over a thousand photographers, both professional and amateur, who responded to an open call for images in the storm's wake. The juried exhibition features striking before-and-after images of the hurricane's impact on the New York region, including preparations, the storm's destructive effects, and the ongoing rebuilding efforts.

Art exhibition – all of the artists have been to places affected by climate change/documented it – all art created in response to experiences (cool segment in article about an artificial diamond created from a polar bear bone – which is more important: the diamond or the polar bear?)

Not displayed: a ‘Climate Change’ panel in earth science exhibit

e.g. of reluctance of museums across the USA to discuss how human activities are altering the climate:

4-by-2.5-foot panel titled "Climate Change" was supposed to have appeared, providing an explanation of the trapping of Co2 and warming of the atmosphere. It included statements about humans burning fossil fuels contributing to this process. It was dropped from the show.

“…connects our visitors with the ocean and climate change through engaging live exhibits of compelling animals and interpretive graphics and activities. The exhibition reflects our visitors’ current understanding and relationship to climate change, communicates that there is hope— that people can make a difference by working together and taking action—and identifies specific actions they can take to address climate change”

“It’s about art, and contemporary artists. The issue – the science – is sitting underneath it. We wanted to create an exhibition that wasn’t literal in any sense. There aren’t any icebergs or polar bears in the show. We wanted it to have an element of looking to the future – hopefulness, as opposed to death, doom and destruction.” There’s a small amount of familiar work there, such as the inclusion of Gormley’s famous “Field” of little fired-clay people (in its Amazonian version). But most of the work is new, or new-ish.

So: it’s a brave move by the RA, and one which will doubtless attract its fair share of criticism for either doom-mongering (strongly denied by Soriano) or political correctness. I’m all in favour. After all the media, scientific and political frenzy surrounding climate change, I’m very happy to let artists provide an alternative view. And just as happy to see both sides of the RA working together at last.

Traveling Exhibit, Field Museum, Chicago

To understand how natural phenomena work, interactive displays and animations let you trigger an earthquake, simulate a tsunami, generate a virtual volcano, and stand within the center of a roaring tornado. Images, artifacts, and inspiring survivor stories then bring home the realities of recent disasters by revealing how people adapt to living at risk. So prepare yourself for a memorable and powerful experience as Nature Unleashed immerses you in the forces of geology and weather that have shaped our planet and our lives.

2008Waters of Tuvalu: Nation at Risk

Immigration Museum in Melbourne, Australia

“The curators and organizers were members of the Tuvaluan community in Melbourne including Tito Tapungao, Fikau Teponga, and members of the Melbourne chapter of the Tuvaluan expat organization Kaiga Tuvalu. Geographer and environmental activist Rob Gell also contributed. The intended audience was both Tuvaluan immigrants and the Australian public.” - quoted from Peter Rudiak-Gould, in J. Newell, L. Robin and K. Wehner (eds) Curating the Future: Museums, Communities and Climate Change (Routledge).

Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, Washington DC

The exhibit’s story of the changing Arctic is illustrated by a rich array of objects from the Smithsonian’s collections, supplemented by photographs, video footage, satellite animations, graphic illustrations, and computer interactive exploration stations.

There is a small mention of global warming in the exhibit, but the potential human causes of the melting arctic are not explored.

Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. September 2003 – September 2004

Smithsonian, DC

Used the El Nino weather phenomenon to demonstrate the dynamic interrelations among the Earth's 4 components -- the geosphere (land), atmosphere (air), hydrosphere (water), and biosphere (life) -- and the effects of these components felt around the world.

Highlights included: a multi-screen presentation of ground-based and satellite images, including recent views of Earth taken from space; weekly updates of an El Nino "watch"; ancient Peruvian artifacts that demonstrate the far-reaching cultural effects of El Nino; interactive displays where visitors can explore the work of Smithsonian scientists.

Deutsches Museum

A heap of coal and a steam engine, illustrating industrialisation as the root cause of the climate problem, greets the entering visitor. Elevated paths lined with sandbags lead through the exhibition.

The highlight of the final section is a smashed, muddy car that was fished out of a branch of the River Elbe after last summer's devastating floods. A source of carbon dioxide, destroyed in the forces it unleashed with its own emissions? Man's relationship with Earth's climate is an experiment that has got out of hand, the exhibition seems to imply.

The main emphasis of the show is on today's climate as a product of nature, technology and politics. A supercomputer next to a negotiation table brings home the interplay between modern research and international treaties. Mitigation and adaptation - the two ways of limiting climate damage - are encapsulated in a comparison of soil-tillage methods and a model of a flood-warning.
